This colorful layered Jello salad recipe is perfect for holiday entertaining or any time.

It is easy to make and looks pretty sitting on the dining or buffet table in a clear glass bowl.

Prep time: 1 hour

Cook time: 0 minutes

Ingredients:
1 - 3 ounce package each of red, lime and lemon jelly powder
1 cup whipping cream, whipped OR
1 package dessert topping, whipped
4 ounces cream cheese
1 small can crushed pineapple, well drained

Directions:
Mix the red jello powder with 1 cup hot water and 1 cup cold water. Pour into a mold and let set.

In a separate bowl, mix half the lemon jelly powder with 3/4 cup boiling water. While hot, mix in the cream cheese. Let this thicken and then mix in the whipped cream or dessert topping mix. Pour this over the red jelly and let set.

In a separate bowl, mix the lime jelly powder with 1 1/2 cups boiling water. Let thicken somewhat, then add the pineapple. Pour this over white mixture and allow it all to set fully.

• This recipe is very pretty so if you have a nice clear glass serving bowl, it will look great.
• Mix it up with the jello flavors and colors of your choice.
• Add a variety of fruit. Mandarin oranges (drained) look great in orange jello or try well drained fruit cocktail in any flavor. Drained pineapple chunks are great in the lime layer.

Makes 10 to 12 servings.
